My review is based on other cruises I have been in the past. This has been my 4th cruise, which departed on April 25th, 2015 from Port Everglades, Fort Lauderdale, FL. Although the cruise was ginormous, it lacked on the ability to accommodate costumers to watch/attend onboard shows.

Critic #1: On day one, and immediately after the safety speech, my wife and I went to see what shows were available and we were told that the majority of the events were already BOOKED! for the entire week, such as the Comedy shows. According to the cruise members, the comedy show room can only accommodate roughly 100 passengers. WOW! really? The ship can hold over 5,000 passengers, which 2,000 of those are cruise crew members. My wife and I were lucky to attend the show at the end of the week after waiting in line for 20 minutes; a line they called, "People Without Reservation." This was the first time I was in a cruise where I could not attend a show because I had no reservation and most importantly because they could only fit roughly 100 passengers per show on a ship so ginormous.

Critic #2: Even though the ship had a lot of restaurants, cafes, and bars to choose from, only a handful were complementary, and those that were complementary for some ungodly reason they only serve you the same food, same dessert, same cold-cut sandwich, for the entire trip. By the way, this was the Cafe Promenade on deck 5. I can't believe you pay, as a passenger, so much money to board such a high-class cruise claimed by some to only been fed the same thing over and over again. Read more
